Seadra (Japanese: シードラ Seadra) is a Water-type Pokémon.

It evolves from Horsea starting at level 32, and evolves into Kingdra when traded holding a Dragon Scale.

Biology

Physiology

Seadra is a primarily blue seahorse Pokémon. It has no arms or legs. It has a long snout and a number of spikes on its head, on the sides and on the top. Its torso is covered with rough, cream-colored scales. Seadra's pectoral fins have sharp, pointed, cream-colored tips from which it exudes venom. It also has a large tail, which is generally coiled up.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

It is capable of swimming backwards while facing forward. Despite being a pure Water-type, it is capable of learning several Dragon-type moves.

Although Seadra is not fully-evolved, it can use Hyper Beam and Giga Impact, since it was fully-evolved in Generation I.

Behavior

Seadra can swim facing backwards by rapidly flapping its fins and its coiled tail. They will find coral reefs to sleep in. They catch their prey by spinning their body to create large whirlpools which tire their foes. Seadra then swallow the victim whole using their long snout.

After the female Seadra gives birth, the male Seadra will take care of the young and its nest. It will viciously attack those who venture too near to its children.

Seadra also contains a gene which its pre-evolution did not carry. Whether this gene contributes to its Poison or Dragon attributes is unclear.

Habitat

Seadra sleeps after wriggling itself between the branches of coral. It can be found in Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh.

Trivia

Origin

Seadra is based on a seahorse, though its ability to shoot ink resembles that of a squid. The fact that it's known as the Dragon Pokémon might be a reference to Leafy sea dragons. Its large, spiky, poisonous fins may be inspired by the lion fish.

Name origin

Seadra may be a combination of seahorse and dragon or hydra (a mythological sea creature).
